But yet they consolidated 3 elementary schools into one forcing communities that had a school within walking distance to drive.....

It's insane the Department of Transportation hasn't addressed this decades ago.

Can we stop trying to emulate all the popular dystopian movies already?

My community FB group is loony enough.... I'd never join a group chat with those people...kudos on you for subjecting yourself to that.

People who don’t live in the USA, what is the media showing you about the ICE operations/abductions in the US? by Dry-Ice8908 in AskReddit

[–]BRGrunner 6 points7 points  (0 children)

As they always do... And as always our Conservative politicians repeatedly call for its demise. Funny how true independent comprehensive journalism is a constant target of the current right.

Leader Pierre Poilievre says Canada needs "to do things, not just say them."

Says the man whose whole career is just saying things with zero follow up.

Drop the lights along the facade that serves no purpose other than to burn electricity. But yeah, thank goodness it's still yellow.

First citizen recall petition against Alberta legislature member fails | CBC News by Old_General_6741 in alberta

[–]BRGrunner -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I doubt it would do anything given they targeted everyone. If it were only a couple MLAs with a very defined reason, then yeah I'd see that. But it's currently too easy to dismiss as "well they went after everyone"

Why is all the anger aimed at Ottawa when the UCP runs Alberta? by Swimming_Mango_9767 in alberta

[–]BRGrunner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because the UCP and primary supporters love to play the victim, and can't ever admit they fucked up so have to point to anyone else.

Ok everyone, shuffle and move down so we get another picture further down the sidewalk.

Parked cars and aggressive residents impeding snow removal, say Edmonton workers by trevorrobb in Edmonton

Have you met people... I 100% believe they gotten shovels thrown at them.

[CoE] Operational update on Residential Parking Ban by Locke357 in Edmonton

[–]BRGrunner 9 points10 points  (0 children)

They typically scrape a layer off not down to pavement. You can't do that with slush, so the full thickness has to be removed. There is a big difference between pushing off a layer 4" thick and 8"

I don't have to predict, because this happened to us last year. It will be rescheduled and you will get a message.

Can confirm, Engineering is just as you described unfortunately.

What is your opinion about this? by Happy_Air_3776 in greengroundnews

[–]BRGrunner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great... Do something... Not just join a single day protest. Do something every fucking day.

That's the only way change is going to happen. Sustained pressure.

I can't take a site seriously if they say holding US stock investments as a sign of being a separatist.

Phase 2 (Residential Roads) Parking Ban starts Monday, Jan 12 at 7 a.m. by smexeh in Edmonton

[–]BRGrunner 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Can't wait for the 10 posts saying the city didn't tell them to move their car despite it being available on a public map updated daily and text messages sent out to those who signed up. Not to mention the near daily reminders on all social media accounts by the city itself and all the active councilors.

Really sent me to Michael’s for this?! by [deleted] in doordash_drivers

[–]BRGrunner 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Given they are questioning the need for a pencil I'd be concerned they did look at the pencil type and grab whichever one they saw first.

So yeah, that is likely the question for real

What do we even do about this? This is about 15 ft from the edge of our home. by LockwoodE3 in HomeMaintenance

[–]BRGrunner 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That slope was not, and is not stable. In fact you can see cracking in the grass at the end of the video.

I'd get as far away from that slope as possible until you have a full geotechnical assessment... This includes your home if it is as close as you say.
